This is my take as well...

They will be severely disappointed in the QB play. Morris was a gamer. They played a terribly weak schedule last season and needed some miracles against some really bad teams. I don't think they repeat the success. But, as you stated, they have a really weak schedule again, so who knows... its the ACC.

Composite ACC rankings from the TSL guys**
RoanokeHokie1872 • 07/22/26 04:03 PM ET
1-4 seems about right. 5-10 could be a jumbled up mess. **
BuffaloTraceHokie • 07/24/26 11:46 PM ET
I agree we with #1 & # 2 - I think it is a pick'em for 3rd to 11 among:

BuffaloTraceHokie • 07/24/26 11:48 PM ET
I don’t get the UVa love.
marcbvtgm • 07/22/26 07:13 PM ET
Pribula had 11 TD and 9 Int last year
VaTechHokiesACC • 07/23/26 12:43 PM ET
1 wouldn't be surprised if the guy from Pitt
crazylane • 07/23/26 06:54 PM ET
Yeah, he'll be a problem for D's in that he can make some plays but I don't
BG Hokie • 07/23/26 04:39 PM ET
UVA has a talented combo of returners and transfers
Zanderhokie • 07/23/26 10:40 AM ET
IMO VT is ranked way too high
BigDaddyHokie • 07/23/26 09:44 AM ET
Huh? #37 '26 transfer P4 class and middling # of returning starters (8).
marcbvtgm • 07/23/26 02:30 PM ET
Their biggest loss was Morris. He was special.
VT One • 07/23/26 08:09 AM ET
I do think some of the hype is warranted and some is misplaced
Rpratt3 • 07/23/26 06:45 AM ET
Didn't they lose three starters from the O line?**
marcbvtgm • 07/23/26 09:25 AM ET
I think they lost two?
Rpratt3 • 07/23/26 09:47 AM ET
You're right...2. An OL from Louisville?**
marcbvtgm • 07/23/26 02:46 PM ET
Misremembered
Rpratt3 • 07/23/26 07:03 PM ET
Solid defense and the players respond well to their coaches
tallahasseehokie • 07/22/26 09:03 PM ET
Counting on the '25 D to carry over to '26 seems stretch to me.
marcbvtgm • 07/23/26 09:28 AM ET
Agree. What about Louisville?
Hate2SeeItEnd Hokie • 07/22/26 08:10 PM ET
Louisville seems a bit overrated to me at #3
Zanderhokie • 07/23/26 10:47 AM ET
Me neither. They will miss Chandler Morris big time.**
TekkNerd • 07/22/26 07:41 PM ET
I agree 110 percent **
VaTechHokiesACC • 07/23/26 12:44 PM ET
Some of these surprise me.
Riverguy • 07/22/26 04:52 PM ET
I don't think Stanford will EVER get back to what they were under Harbaugh.
TekkNerd • 07/22/26 07:49 PM ET
Stanford had success under Walsh and probably would have continued having
VTHokie2000 • 07/23/26 03:02 PM ET
Depends if one of their wealthy alum decides to donate $$$'s**
Ultra Hokie • 07/22/26 10:11 PM ET
Yep.Lots of currency in the Bay area and it only takes 1 of them to step up
Hate2SeeItEnd Hokie • 07/23/26 12:36 PM ET
I've wondered how Luck will work out. His dad's an AD**
Riverguy • 07/22/26 08:17 PM ET
Their schedule is easy.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 07/22/26 07:10 PM ET
This! UVA schedule is a cake walk. Even with a qb 2.5 running the show **
AnotherTechW • 07/22/26 09:53 PM ET
Hah! Solid insight. I can see that
Riverguy • 07/22/26 07:38 PM ET
That said...
Chris ColemanAdmin • 07/22/26 07:12 PM ET
Sounds like TSL should create its own version of the Wheel of Destiny for
VTHokie2000 • 07/23/26 10:46 AM ET
UVA's defense should be very good. Their D was really good last year.
VaTechie • 07/22/26 05:43 PM ET
not good enough against Duke**
lazarus1 • 07/22/26 07:04 PM ET
yeah, they definitely choked on that one
VaTechie • 07/22/26 09:21 PM ET
wrong. the wahoos suck!**
Scream_On_D • 07/22/26 06:52 PM ET
A bit of a knee jerk reaction but**
Coach McGuirk • 07/22/26 08:56 PM ET
Players for Stanford don’t want to travel cross country for1/2 games **
Hokey Pokey • 07/22/26 05:36 PM ET
Andy and Chris picking NCS ahead of VT, GT and Pitt is highly unlikely
Durham Hokie • 07/22/26 04:16 PM ET
I get it - VT simply hasn't won in any meaningful way since 2017. Need..
GoldCoast • 07/25/26 09:59 AM ET
The whole rankings. I probably should have posted this from the start haha**
RoanokeHokie1872 • 07/22/26 04:33 PM ET
Honestly, I'd be OK with a 6th or 7th place ACC finish in Franklin's Year 1
Zanderhokie • 07/23/26 10:50 AM ET
Just get us a winning season, Franklin. Seven Regular Season wins.
HokieNL • 07/23/26 01:06 PM ET
Agreed.
